    I am looking for old QV and 2V wire sets that owners might have thrown in a box in the corner. I want to be able to build plug wire sets for the cars recycling the silicone jackets, boots, mounts... that are still in serviceable condition and make these available on an exchange basis.

    I went through the expense and effort to have Taylor make me 5000 feet (!) of 7mm spark plug wire to my spec's that I am quite pleased with and believe to be the best available. Most owners do not have the proper crimping tools to assemble the wire sets at home so an exchange program could solve this problem.

    Partial or full sets are fine as there will be many with components that are not fit for reuse on some of the sets.

    PM me with what you might have laying in the corner and I will see if it makes sence to get this underway. I will be happy to pay shipping and packaging costs within reason and the dirtier they come the better.

    Put new plug wires in this spring. I'll look for the old ones and if I find them, I'll send you a PM.

    this is a great idea, give gt car parts and t rutlands a call, and see if they will donate some to the cause, as many cars as they chop up, they should have piles of them. its not like we as a community dont buy lots of stuff already from them, and they could be a reseller for you in the future.
